nice vid!!! but i wouldnt have called the allin with KQ... could have been painful, dont you think? maybe he floped two pair.. or was on a flush draw and he checked on the turn.. slow play with the flush? so i would never call an allin with just top pair and good kicker in the early stage of a sng.

comment continued from below ....a good player would definately try and take control of the hand by betting instead of check callin praying for the flush to hit,which was a far better play as u gave ureself a chance , even if unlikely of pickinh up the pot with a worse hand,ie.. he mighta had ak hearts and u could pick up an uncontested pot

i have a comment the had u raised with ak then called the big reraise( which is marginal) but not horrible u then flopped 3 to ure suit....u then called his allin 1 question if u intended on calling an allin from him after the flop hit, why wasnt u the 1 going allin and giving ureself a chance to win the pot right there

Nice vid. Excellent presenting - tonality, comments, explanations etc. Shame about the negative comments saying you contradict yourself. Some people just don't understand poker is a game of situations rather than hard rules - even though they think they knwo about poker. So yeah, betting to chase flush draws is not hypocritical to you betting lareg to simulate the draw.

I found calling with AJ kind of loose especially with the blinds so low. Could have easily gone broke there because so much of your stack was invested in the pot but it turned out alright lol. They were too aggressive and you made them pay lol. Is this a cash game?

Anything you learn from this guy you must use in cash games for lots of money. I try using this in freerolls and small games, and u just get jerkoffs calling and chasing dream river cards, so to reiterate it only works against good players

Obviously A/J was an easy fold in that situation. I found it amusing that later on he spoke about not getting in trouble with kickers...

On that hand when u had A-J, and had 2 people raise in front of you, you assumed nobody had your A-J beat, did you think someone could of had A-Q, A-K?

Understood. Well, everyone has their own way of playing this game. I vary my play quite a bit so as to be less predictable. I don't play any hand the same exact way for a given position. I do often play more loose early in a tournament in order to get a feel for the table action, which sometimes results in me loosing a few chips early, and making me appear loosy-goosy...then I tighten up some, then bluff some. I mix things up, which has worked well for me.
